Help me pick my next bike
Quote | Reply
I'm in the market for a new speed machine and I'd like a little bit of guidance on which one I should be leaning towards. I'm 6'2 with a 33-34 inseam and I ride a 58cm road bike and a 61cm tri bike.

Option 1: Felt IA 16
Option 2: 2013 Felt DA
Option 3: Cervelo P2?


The IA would come stock and I could upgrade the components.
The DA is a used bike but would come with a power meter
The Cervelo P2 would also be stock but it has better components than the IA.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What about the rest of the kit on the DA? What bar, too, as that's going to be huge regarding fit.

I'm almost positive it's the stock bar that came with it.

The bike that fits you the best. Do you know your pad x and pad y coordinates on your current bike? How is your position on your current bike?

Your bike position should be the driving factor on getting a new bike.

Agreed. Sure would suggest he get a bike fit before he buys a new bike.

IMO, he may want to wait for the bikes to come out with disc brakes so he is not buying old stuff. I know I am waiting.

If that is the Bayonet 3 Devox and the seller has all the bits it came with then I would go DA. That bar is super adjustable and really fast. Not sure what size frame it is, but this is all under the assumption that the frame allows you to hit your PAD X/Y.
